A lot of the people reading this know that I used to blog. I blogged about a lot of things, but then life got too fast for me and other things started to consume my time, and well, my old blog just kind of died, for lack of a better word.
Since I started a blog for Awareness Beads, I decided to start a new blog for myself too.
Why not just start posting again on the old one, you ask? Well, because my life has changed a lot since I last blogged there, and so I felt the need for a fresh start.
With that said, I'll start with just a few blog-worthy things that have happened recently:
1) My boyfriend and I started dating on February 21, 2011. He lives three hours away in Norfolk, VA, and we met on Facebook through our care for children with cancer. Judge us if you'd like, but we do visit each other and the long distance thing works for us. We're in love, we have tons in common, we love each other's families and they love us, so that's what's important in our opinions. Soon I'll be 18 and out of high school and we'll get to see each other a lot more often, but for now we'll just enjoy the time we do have together.
2) I got accepted into East Carolina University and I will be going in the Fall of 2011 to major in Child Life. My ultimate goal is to become a Child Life Specialist and work in a children's hospital.
3) My cousin had a baby girl on April 5, 2011. Her name is Ashlynn Grace Sneed and she weighed 10 pounds and 1 ounce at birth.
4) Jordan and I started Awareness Beads. Awareness Beads is a soon-to-be Non-Profit Organization that makes bead jewelry with kids' names and/or diagnosis' to raise awareness for childhood diseases like Cystic Fibrosis and Pediatric Cancer. Though we mainly make beads for disease awareness for kids, we have also made some for adult diseases and for other things like Sexual Abuse Awareness and Spread The Word To End The Word. We accept donations for our jewelry and we give all of the money to benefit research and care for the diseases and causes. To learn more about Awareness Beads click the logo in the sidebar.
That's about all I can think of right this second just to introduce myself and what's going on in my life right now. If you want to read my old blog for whatever reason, you can find it at: www.lifestormystyle.blogspot.com
Until my next post,
Stormy <3
